the first pressing of this had an error on the back cover. it was missing the song title “silenced”, which is how this record became known as the “Diet Root Beer” 7″, because it was suspected as the first song.

i still remember when i got this in the mail from Vacuum mailorder. i listened to it so many times the first day i probably wore a hole through it practically.

i got this when it came out and thought it was merely ok. i loved the lyrics and music but thought marks vocals were too whiny/snotty. it made me skip over their later releases for a while. until i heard their side of the split with spazz. that and the split with unanswered are some of my favorite CB material.
